Commanders Reacts Survey Week 15: Who ends up with the best draft position?

Commanders Reacts Survey Week 15: Who ends up with the best draft position?

Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NFL. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Washington Commanders fans and fans across the country. Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys.

Today, we have two simple questions in the Reacts survey, each of which offers a binary choice of answers.

Question 1

The first is our standard question that is posed every week of the season (or most of it, anyway), asking about your confidence in the team’s direction.

Question 2

Our second question asks which of two teams...

The Commanders are asking Jayden Daniels to do too much

When the Commanders, who are officially eliminated from playoff contention at 3-10, look ahead to 2026, they probably will need to field a roster that can lighten Daniels’s burden. The quarterback certainly has work to do to improve at protecting himself — this was his third straight game that he was knocked out of — but the Commanders seem to be asking him to do too much. Otherwise, it would be easier for him to be more risk averse.

Monday Night Football: Philadelphia Eagles vs Los Angeles Chargers

We’ve got one game left for Week 14 of the 2025/’26 NFL season. This week’s Monday Night Football features the Philadelphia Eagles traveling across the country to take on the Los Angeles Chargers. Both teams enter this critical week with an 8-4 record. The Eagles are on a two-game losing streak, and the team looks like it’s ready to fall apart. The Chargers have won 3 of their last four games, and are in second place in the AFC West. Justin Herbert had surgery on his non-throwing hand after last week’s game, but should be good to go tonight. This...

Dan Quinn: No long-term concerns for Jayden Daniels’ elbow injury

Dan Quinn: No long-term concerns for Jayden Daniels’ elbow injury

Dan Quinn spoke to reporters for his weekly “Tell the Truth Monday”. The Washington Commanders lost their eighth-straight game, getting shut out by the Minnesota Vikings 31-0. Quinn said that was not acceptable in any way, shape, or form. This was a team failure from coaches to players to the front office, and things need to change over the final four games.

Quinn gave some injury updates, and said what everyone feared, TE Zach Ertz tore his ACL and is out for the season. Ertz meant a lot to the team on and off the field, and will now get...

Washington Commanders 2026 building blocks

Washington Commanders 2026 building blocks

With the 2025 season all but over, I wanted to take a long, hard look at what pieces this roster has we can build around for the future.

As you all know around this time of year, when Washington is out of playoff contention (something we all should be very familiar with), focus starts to shift to the NFL Draft. The building blocks are something to monitor as we begin to evaluate draft prospects and try to match value at our draft position with positional need.

Below are who I view as building blocks on this team moving forward. I...

Washington’s shutout loss to Minnesota removed any short-term optimism had for their final five-game stretch

Washington’s shutout loss to Minnesota removed any short-term optimism had for their final five-game stretch

The Washington Commanders were blanked by the Minnesota Vikings 31-0. Their 31-point shutout loss is by far their worst loss of the season, and it comes at a time when Washington exuded so much optimism after a close loss to the then 9-2 Denver Broncos. Terry McLaurin and Deebo Samuel looked electric at times, Zach Ertz hauled in ten receptions, the offensive line looked amazing, Treylon Burks went viral with an incredible touchdown catch, and to top it off, Jayden Daniels was cleared to play against the Minnesota Vikings. The staff, media, and most fans were very interested in seeing...

Commanders Vs. Vikings – Studs and Duds

Commanders Vs. Vikings – Studs and Duds

One week after a valiant effort against a very good Denver Broncos team at home, Washington came out and laid an egg against the struggling Minnesota Vikings on the road.

The offense was stagnant all game as both quarterbacks looked rattled against Brian Flores’ aggressive defense. The defense, as it’s done most of the season, looked like it couldn’t stop a U10 Pop Warner football team.

The Results – a 31-0 BLOWOUT, and yet ANOTHER injury to quarterback Jayden Daniels, who just can’t seem to stay healthy. Aside from Daniels, Washington lost tight end Zach Ertz to a gruesome knee...

It can and does get worse: Jayden Daniels exits early as Commanders are shut out

Washington is officially eliminated from playoff contention after perhaps its worst performance of the season in a 31-0 loss to the Vikings.

In the most agonizing sequence of Washington’s 31-0 loss Sunday, Vikings cornerback Isaiah Rodgers gave Daniels a two-handed shove and sent him flying to the ground, where the quarterback landed hard on his previously dislocated left elbow. He lingered for a moment before jogging off the field. After a conversation with trainers on the...

What are the odds? The Washington Commanders are road underdogs against the New York Giants

What are the odds? The Washington Commanders are road underdogs against the New York Giants

The Washington Commanders played their worst game in a terrible season against the Minnesota Vikings earlier today, getting shut out 31-0. Jayden Daniels and WR Noah Brown both returned from injuries, but the team still couldn’t score. Daniels was kept out of the game after landing hard on his left elbow, the same elbow he dislocated a month ago.

The New York Giants are coming off their late bye week, and at 2-11, they have one more win than the Commanders. They were the first team eliminated from playoff contention and they have already fired their head coach and defensive...

Dan Quinn: Jayden Daniels should play again this season

Dan Quinn: Jayden Daniels should play again this season

Dan Quinn said tonight’s shutout/blowout loss to the Minnesota Vikings was unacceptable. He thought the team took a step forward last week in their overtime loss to the Broncos, but they took three steps back today in a 31-0 loss. Jayden Daniels landed hard on his left elbow while pursuing a Vikings defender who had just picked him off. Quinn said Daniels could have returned to the game, but he made the call to keep him on the sidelines after the Vikings went up 17-0 in the 3rd quarter.

Zach Ertz also left the game due to injury, but he...
